a) Mrs. Nelson will pay $45 for the speaker at Kohl's.

b) Mrs. Nelson would pay $43.70 for the speaker at Target.

c) Mrs. Nelson would get the best deal from Target's.

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price at Kohl = $60.00

Discount coupon = 25%

Purchase price of Target = $38.00

Mark up = 15%

a.) How much would Mrs. Nelson pay for the speaker at Kohl’s?

Discount = 25% of selling price

Discount amount = $\frac{25}{100}*60=\frac{1500}{100}$

Discount amount = $15

Cost after discount = Selling price - Discount amount

Cost after discount = 60-15 = $45

Mrs. Nelson will pay $45 for the speaker at Kohl's.

b.) How much would Mrs. Nelson pay for this speaker at Target?

Mark up = 15% of purchase price

Mark up amount = $\frac{15}{100}*38=\frac{570}{100}$

Mark up amount = $5.70

Price after mark up = Purchase price + Mark up amount

Price after mark up = 38.00+5.70 = $43.70

Mrs. Nelson would pay $43.70 for the speaker at Target.

c.) Which store would Mrs. Nelson get the best deal and by how much?

Difference between prices = 45-43.70 = $1.30

Mrs. Nelson will save $15 on Kohl's and she will get the speaker at $43.70 at Target's, therefore, she would save $1.30 more if she buys speaker from Target's.

Mrs. Nelson would get the best deal from Target's.

Water is leaking out of an inverted conical tank at a rate of 6800.0 cubic centimeters per min at the same time that water is be

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

6.82 $mt^3/min$

Step-by-step explanation:

By congruence of triangles, the radius r of the cone base when its height is 1 meter satisfies the relation

r/1 = 2.5/6

(See picture attached)

So, r = 0.4166 meters when the water is 1 meter high.

The volume of a cone with radius of the base = R is given by

$V=\frac{\pi R^2h}{3}$

So, the volume of water when it is 1 meter high is

$V=\frac{\pi* 0.(4166)^2}{3}=0.1817\;mt^3$

One minute later, the height of the water is 1 meter + 30 centimeters = 1.30 mt

The radius now satisfies

r/1.3 = 2.5/6

and now the radius of the base is

r = 0.5416 mt

and the new volume of water is $0.3071\;mt^3$

So, the water is raising at a speed of

0.3071-0.1871 = 0.12 $mt^3/min$

This speed equals the difference between the water being pumped and the water leaking,

So,

<em>0.12 = Speed of water being pumped -6.8 </em>

and

Speed of water being pumped = 6.8+0.12 = 6.82 $mt^3/min$
